At 10 am today, we will be going live with @jvenkatesh97 and @kavithamurali to discuss the crisis indian sex workers have been facing during the lockdown - no access to Healthcare facilities, no ration cards, the increased cases of abuse. Join us! Photo by Arindam Mukherjee

We welcome @jvenkatesh97 and @kavithamurali in this live chat. Thank you for the opportunity of dialogue as we bring forth the ignored voices of sex workers during this lockdown.

Opening the chat, sex workers had been pushed into deep crisis amplified by the stigma attached to the profession. How does the fact that sex work is not recognised as work in India further aggravate this crisis?
